Jordanian Dates Association, Hamdi

Sara mentioned that Jordan ranks 15th globally in date
production and exports dates to twenty countries worldwide. He pointed out that
the Israeli occupation has repeatedly attempted to tarnish the reputation of
Jordanian dates by spreading rumors, especially after they became a major
competitor.
Despite the
aggression launched by the occupation against
Jordanian products, Sara explained that Jordan's date production is exported to
the markets of the European Union and Britain. Furthermore, he highlighted that
Jordan has a million date palm trees, as farmers turned to cultivate the
"Medjool Date," one of the finest global varieties.
